“To study the Molecular characterization of Metallo-beta lactamase gene with Special reference to blaIMP-1 gene in Imipenem Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from Patients of Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media at a Tertiary Care Centre in Uttar Prad

Abstract

Introduction: Persistent suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a persistent inflammation of the middle ear and mastoid cavity that persists for more than two weeks. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen that causes CSOM. One of the best medications for treating Pseudomonas infections is carbapenem. The development of bacteria resistant to carbapenems is frequently linked
to metallo-ß lactamases. In an effort to stop and propagate resistance, identifying the strains that create MBLs can help guarantee that patients receive the best therapy possible.
